Figure 4.

Genetic and epigenetic regulation of the cardiogenic transcriptional network. Both the NURF and the SWI/SNF complexes participate in the modulation of expression of genes required for cardiogenesis. The figure briefly summarizes the key stages through which the embryo develops to generate its heart and the major genes participating within networks in cardiogenesis. The enzymes written in red have specifically been reported to regulate expression of genes important for normal cardiogenesis.
